The Path Through the Trees: Beyond the World of Pooh, Part 2

"The Path Through the Trees" is Part Two of Christopher Milne's autobiography, told simply, vividly, and often humorously. (Part One is titled: The Enchanted Places: Beyond the World of Pooh, Part 1) We all must forge our own life path, and as a young man, Christopher Milne sought his against a background of two central experiences. The first was being A. A. Milne's son, which he poignantly describes in his first book. The second was the war, in which he served in the Royal Engineers. After the war, Christopher and his wife made their home and career in Dartmouth, Devon, where they founded the Harbour Bookshop in 1951. This is a moving account of a young man's search for identity, of a struggling (but later thriving) bookshop, and of Milne's own family life in a small English country town. Narrator Peter Dennis, a longtime friend of the Milne family, made this recording as a final gift for Clare Milne, Christopher Robin Milne's only child.
